保罗.都铎.琼斯投资名言: I believe the very best money is made at the market turns…

“I believe the very best money is made at the market turns. Everyone says you get killed trying to pick tops and bottoms and you make all your money by playing the trend in the middle. Well for twelve years I have been missing the meat in the middle but I have made a lot of money at tops and bottoms.”

— Paul Tudor Jones

“我深信,最丰厚的利润是在市场发生反转时赚到的。所有人都会告诉你,妄图逃顶和抄底的做法必死无疑,只有在趋势发展中才能赚到钱。好吧,在过去的12年中,我一直都错过了趋势中间的那块肥肉,然而我却在市场的顶底部赚到盆满钵满。”

— 保罗.都铎.琼斯

Have no choice but后面接什么? to do, do, 还是doing?

Have no choice but,是一个常用的英语固定短语,其意思是:除了…外别无选择。那么have no choice but后面是接动词原形,不定式,还是现在分词呢?

答案是,but后面一般应该接不定式:but to do…。

参考几个英文例句:

They had no choice but to agree to what he suggested.(除了同意他的建议外,他们别无选择)

Trump: ‘We have no choice’ but to build up our military(特朗普:除了加强我们的军事力量外,“我们别无选择”。)

I Have No Choice but to Keep Looking(除了继续搜寻外,我别无选择)

注意除了have no choice but,你也可以使用have little choice but(这里的little choice,表示”没什么选择余地”)来表达相同的意思,二者的语法构造也完全一致。

Will感悟:很多时候我们想要追逐自己的梦想,却被别人“善意”地提醒:放弃吧,你做不到。或者你的亲人、朋友会告诉你:play it safe(稳妥一点比较好)。但是,如果你真的看准了方向,请尽情忽略这些噪音。相信自己,紧盯目标,咬牙坚持,你定会做到。Never undersell yourself… Ever!
